Please be extra careful when exporting your Farcaster wallet private key. Have had 2 users message me today that it was compromised after storing outside of Farcaster and funds were drained :(

Don’t use your FC wallet keys in other wallets. 

If you get compromised, there is no way to rotate the wallet with our key storage model today. 

It’s ok to export your keys and put in a password manager, or to send funds out to another wallet.

Just a heads up I had *all* my wallets drained, inc my ledger, a little over a year ago bc of the LastPass pw manager hacks where hackers stole entire databases that LastPass hadn’t updated properly, along w some code that something like 2 people in the company had access to.

There are MANY people who were impacted the way I was bc of those same breaches, inc some *major* players, so I will never trust a pw manager again.

Also had an apartment burn down years ago & lost pretty much everything, & no one can convince me any ‘fire proof steel punch plate’ or any other thing would have survived that, so I will also never trust anything physical.

My work around (that I feel about as good as I can about) is to use two different pw managers & store half the seed in one & half in the other. 

W everything I’ve seen & experienced over the years, I’d be hesitant to share that publicly, except unfortunately I don’t have anything of value to steal anymore, let alone that $8k BTC I used to have 🙃
